OK, YOu haven't heard from me in so long you probably don't remember me. There are so many new names here that I don't know. I took a few weeks off for various reasons (excuses really). It has taken 3 weeks for me to get my will back and my drive again. I guess the kicker was finally getting on the scale and seeing that I gained 8 pounds! I wanted to cry. I decided I could either gain it all back or reverse the process and I am choosing to reverse the process. I lost 5 of it last week and hopefully lose the other 3 this week. Then I can start just where I left off. I figure taking 2 weeks to get back to where I was is better than gaining another few pouonds over those same 2 weeks. I am not ever giving up. I don't care how many "pauses" I take in the future, I will NOT give up. If it takes 2 years to reach goal so be it. It is better than NEVER reaching the goal.

Just want to take a moment to congratulate everyone for their successes.I can do that now that I don't envy or resent them anymore. I did unjustly do that these past few weeks. Sorry, I think it is part of the mental thing of gaining. Nothing personal just couldn't handle hearing how successful everyone was while I was in an embarrassing flounder. I hope to one day post my success story and pics. This will be truly a day of celebration of life for me.------Still very Jungley Jane

Hey JungleJane, I remember you. Sounds to me like you didn't loose your willpower, it was just on hiatus for a bit. Reread your post, there is so much power and strength in there! Taking 2 weeks to get that gain off is nothing. I remember the days when it took me more than a month to loose 8 pounds.

Now that you're right back on track, keep that bunny hopping the right direction.........you can do it.

One question: Where was your will hiding? Maybe that will help me find mine. hehe :mrgreen:

I'm glad you were able to get back to it. Reading your post was encouraging and I agree.......I don't care how long it takes me.......I will succeed. I REFUSE TO GIVE UP!!

Thank you for sharing your frustrations.

Jungle Jane~ Girl, you are back - that is the main thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You ought to read a few of my posts. They are all over the place. I even had to put 20 pounds on my record due to a bad scale. Lots of pitfalls, gains, and stalls since February. Anyway, I am back on track. If I can do it you can do it kiddo! There are going to be ups and downs.

Your MF team is sooooooo here for you!
